Just got back from the surgeon.
It is all BENIGN!! Woo-hoo! I'm sure you can imagine how elated I am. Just thrilled.
It was a long ride over to the surgeon's office (rush hour in DC). They took me right away for my 9:00 a.m. appointment and I was back in my car at 9:07! The surgeon was still miffed at the ultrasonographer, who basically said on her report that I had cancer.
Anyway, the right breast (where I had surgery last year) contained "fibrocystic disease with a ruptured cyst (hematoma) forming foreign body giant granulomas and fat necrosis."
The left breast (the one I was worried about) had a fibroadenoma and fibrocystic disease.
I want to thank everyone who supported me through this, who listened to me freak out, and for all the personal PMs. You all are wonderful people.

I am so happy, but really just stunned. I feel like I got a "second chance" if that makes sense. I almost don't know what to do with myself.
